Bill O'Brien: 'there are no freebies' on Texans schedule

Bill O’Brien has been coaching in the NFL long enough to know how to avoid creating bulletin board material for Houston Texans opponents. Coach O’Brien acknowledged the tough spots on the 2018 Texans slate, but was quick to point out that every game is difficult.

Opening the season in New England against the Patriots is no picnic, and the Texans also face the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16 in Philly. O’Brien noted, “That’s quite a challenge.”

O’Brien noted,

“That’s what the NFL is all about. In my mind, there’s 32 teams all chasing the same thing.”
